So, you’ve been researching cars and you know what’s out there.  You’ve gotten quotes from the Internet, and you know about rebates and used car warranties, yet you still haven’t found the right vehicle for the right price.  Don’t worry, there’s a car out there for you.  Follow these tips to get a good deal.

To save big get a car model at the end of the year before the new model is about to be sold.  For instance, a motorist bought a 2000 Honda Civic coupe late in the year, soon before the release of the seventh-generation Civic, which saved him thousands of dollars.

Another smart tactic to save on a used car purchase is to look at buying a rental car.  Most rental companies, such as Alamo and Hertz sell their vehicles.  Although their cars usually have high mileage, they are put through a rigorous maintenance schedule.  This will allow you to save approximately one-third of the cost of the car new.

Finally, consider looking at demo models from dealerships, which are often used for test drives.  These cars typically have very low-mileage and you can get a great deal on them.

Any consumer who is educated can get a used vehicle for a good deal.  By researching, and trying different options, you are bound to get a good vehicle.  However, when buying used, always protect yourself with an auto warranty in case of repairs that are unforeseen down the road.
